CHOOSING A UNIVERSITY IN YUKON TERRITORY

Choosing to study at a university in Canada is a life-changing decision! Travel and study abroad are always enriching, but you still want to choose your university carefully. While there are lots of great universities in Canada to choose from, this decision doesn't have to be overwhelming. Break down your decision about a university in Canada into smaller categories to help guide you; making a check sheet for each university you're interested in can be a good way to compare schools so you can see which one best suits your academic and personal needs.

Programs offered: Does the university offer a program in the area that interests you? Consider the courses available, class size, instructor qualifications and credentials, specialized facilities, etc.

Academic and language requirements: Consider what courses are required, whether you can apply directly from high school, which language tests scores they accept, etc.

Location: Consider the climate and the benefits and challenges of small towns, medium sized cities, and large metropolises.

Size and culture: Consider what learning environment best suits your personality: a more personal atmosphere or a large, bustling campus. In terms of a university's "culture," you should consider a school's religious affiliation, program focus (for instance liberal arts, technology, theology, etc.).

Cost: Consider basic living expenses, tuition fees and the cost of books and other supplies.

Scholarships and awards/ financial aid: Are there specific scholarships, awards or loans for international students that you qualify for? How helpful is the university's financial aid office?
